I don't know if this is the right place to post my problem which is with setup manager;
if I open a 65 mod setup it tells me that it doesn't recognise if is a 66 or a 69 setup then it asks me if is a 66 setup, I answer no and it doesn't open anything sayng that i don't have to mod installed

Does somebody has a solution for this weird behaving?

thank you

That is normal, it is due to the recent mod patch updates which have changed some identifier number or other in the files. Lee wrote a fixed version of Setup manager which you will find by searching in this forum.

Since for other reasons GEM is getting updated within the next few weeks, I guess this latest version of setup manager that understands the new setups could now ship as part of that updated package if Lee is agreeable to that?

Hello everyone.
I'm trying to get setupmanager 1.1.5 to work through GEM+ 2.5.32, with no succes.
I was previously using setupmanager 1.0
I placed 1.1.5 in the GPL secrets folder (removed 1.0) and when I start it from there it works, after I point it to the GPL.exe file. When I load a '65 setup I get the choice to pick the year and the setup loads.
What doesn't work is when I try to get in 1.1.5 when in GEM+. When I hit the edit button nothing happens. When I remove 1.1.5 and put 1.0 back the edit button works fine again.
Did I miss something or am I doing something wrong?

Thank's for the reply!
I DL'd the V1.1.6., which seems to be an .EXE file, and dropped it in the GPLSM folder in GPL secrets replacing the previous one.
The GPLSM works like it did before if I start it up from within GPL secrets, but the EDIT button in GEM+ still won't launch the GPLSM 1.1.6. like it used to launch v1.0.
Any suggestions?

Open GEM+, select the Configure button, select the "Path to Setup Manager" button (button under Path WinVROC), then point GEM+ to Setup Manager v1.1.6 .exe; where ever you have it.

Thank you!
That makes sense. I already looked in the configurator but didn't know what GRE was.
So I just did what you explained and it still won't work. But don't worry, I'll figure it out somehow. In the meantime I'll use the shortcut to GPLSM I put on my desktop.

PS : in some previous versions of GEM, it was posible to attribute some different engine sound file to each car through the carset menu. It seems its no more possible. Do you confirm or is there anything wrong with my install ?

I can't ever remember that feature to be honest.

It was a kind option. We could change the sound through GEM without having to rename the sound file in the sound folder.
Thanks for the reply.

Yes, that would be great, but the only programme I know of designed for that was GPL Soundplayer. Unless my memory is letting me down again!!

Fred Simms Car Changer can be setup to change sounds when you change certain skins, but you have to put sound files in the car folders to set it up like that. Quite handy though.
